    Tip 5 Repotting seedlings to a bigger pot. This will help keep seedlings healthy when overgrowing the current pot.

      HEY Jesse!!!!! Thanks. I appreciate your kind words. 1st year, that's col. Hopefully, I'm the next 2 to 3 weeks. I will get my tomato plants. I'll show a common mistake many beginners make when planting their new tomato plants.

    Hey Bear, do you boil water to sterilize your indoor seed starting mix???🧐🤔

    Love the heat mat. Thank you. I had no idea I needed one. Can’t wait to get it. 😊💕👍🏻👍🏻

      HEY AJ!!! I use the heat mat to make my seeds germinate faster, especially tomatoes and peppers, for sure. It got cool in my home, and I put the heat mat back under them. I will say to monitor your seedlings because everyone's temperature is not the same. When yours come up, you may not need it all through the day. Now I the mat a couples hours in the morning when it's cool. I hope your plants do well.

    Looking good Mr Brown! My tomatoes go into the ground soon. Have a fifteen year old breeding project bringing large fully open flowers and tomatoes that only can interbreed with a second plant and not itself doing inbreeding like all the current tomatoes varieties. Also found a ten year old packet of mortgage lifters heirlooms so planting those out, already got germination and able five good seedlings from that ancient packet 😅. I also put 142 Green Striped Cushaw in the ground direct seeded under the wood chips two days ago before the rains started. Supposed to be very good against the squash vine borers. Check them out if never tried them. I got a whole ounce packet on Amazon from Harris Seed so I had heaps of seeds to try this growing season to jump start my own seed generation. Since I don't water or spray or care for them the weak genetics will die off and I should collect seeds from the few sitting generic survivors to kick start my Cushaw seed collection this year. All the best with your tomato endeavors. ❤

      HEY PD!!! THANKS for the suggestion, I will definitely look them up. I'm getting nervous about my tomatoes, they are growing very tall. I am still hardening them off, but the temperature is dipping this weekend. The last 2 days, the wind was crazy so I did not put them out to sit. That is smart collecting the strongest seeds.

      @@GrowSomethingTasty I didn't use my grow lights and my germination station more than a week. This year I grew the tomato seedlings in a small canning jar with moistened potting mix and then some plastic wrap on top. Mass germination in very small space! I did the rest of my seeds this way too this year to try. After germination within a week In pricked them out of the jar and into big red picnic cups which I drilled holes in the bottoms last year as a project. From there into Walmart plastic totes outside with holes drilled and inch up from the bottom. Once filled with red cups I put in water until the holes started draining the rising water. That's it. Left outside on the side of the house getting morning sun. A few more weeks later the weak ones died off and the strong ones are large and already fully hardened off. It got down to 36 or 37 twice over the weeks outside and I was amazed they didn't get impacted whole ones in the ground got killed off. My other project is a fifteen year breeding program mixing wild ancestors with tomatoes to recover lost genetics from centuries of inbreeding. These tomatoes have giant flowers and stigma that grow out of the flower before pollen gets made. This exerted stigma means no more self inbreeding. So now each tomato plant needs to trade pollen with another tomato plant so lots of genetics are getting passed back and forth. This will help future disease resistance breeding work. If you ever want to play with them let me know.
